· Our club will be co-sponsoring a Rotary
Exchange student with the Pinecrest and Coral Gables Clubs. Sebastian (but
we will call him Philip) arrives on August 17th at MIA at 5:45
PM. Doreen and Britt will be there to welcome him, and it would be terrific
if other members of our club can join them.
· John Sorgie distributed the ticket
booklets for Football Mania!!
This is the 14th year for this fundraiser. Each
RCSM member needs to sell 10 booklets and 496 booklets will be printed. Our
2009 sales raised $2,234.00 for the club. The money is used by the club to
send to Rotary International Foundation. It is the money used when we honor
our members with Paul Harris Fellowships.
Quick sales line: Consider making a donation of $10 to support
the RCSM. This is a good cause AND you have 15 opportunities to win $50.
That’s 59 cents a week for a chance to win.
Last year’s best seller : Ed Fischer. Next, Mike Mills and
Karen Vassell
· Karen Vassell and Linda Kaplan told us
about their trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica last week as part of our project
with Caribbean Charities for Children. They went to Jamaica and held a
picnic for the children. It was a heartwarming and gratifying experience.
They had a very positive experience with the local Rotary Clubs, and had
been in touch with some of them ahead of time to find volunteer assistance.
Karen attended Rotary meetings and at the last minute found additional
volunteers to come out and help. Local clubs are now working with
volunteers to get dental care for these children and to develop a library
for the schools they attend. Hopefully more members of our club can
participate next year.
· We all wished Stan Zeltsman a very happy
birthday!!

DID YOU MISS A MEETING ‘BECAUSE
YOU WERE AWAY?
Our club goal is 100% Attendance!
If you miss a
meeting, it can be made-up within 2 weeks, before or after, of the
missed meeting date.
For online
make-ups:
Visit www.ri6990.org to find a club
to make up an absence.
Attendance
credit for a 30-minute interactive club Web site activity offers an
alternative to making up a meeting at another club.
To
earn this credit, Rotarians log on to the site, read up on a range of
subjects, post comments, & submit a form to the club secretary.
How to do a Make-Up On-Line via Rotary eClub One?
Perfect attendance is now possible for every Rotarian with
computer access. Rotary’s eClub One is a full-service online charted Rotary
Club. Meetings operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. What an easy way
to make up for a meeting that you have missed! During the last Rotary year,
Rotary eClub One welcomed more than 120,000 visitors from 161 countries. Of
these, about 800 per week participated in one of eClub One’s meeting
programs and applied for make-up credit.
Here’s what you have to do
to earn make up credit. Go to http://www.rotary.org/RIdocuments/en_pdf/eclub_list.pdf
It is mandatory that you spend at least 30 minutes on the
website for qualify for a make-up credit. (Remember Rotarians are guided by
the principles of the 4 Way Test).
